Jackson-Triggs Merlot Proprietors' Grand Reserve 2000

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBig spicy, orange rind nose streaked with pepper, cherry jam and vanilla with lots of smoky oak, cherry cola notes and just a touch of leafiness at the end. A perfect example of why merlot is so well suited to B.C. when the crop load and winemaking is right. Rich, hot, ripe tannins with big coffee, dill, smoky oak flavours mix with clove, cherry and pepper. A Blockbuster red that has some ageing potential through 2007.Tasted: 20 June 2003Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
